If so, congratulations! You've seen Newcastle.
Thas Novacastrian bashing won't be called for mates. We have the countries best beaches and no one else does <3

Thanks to today's timely Guardian article, not only am I cool, but Newcaste too!
i still can't believe "novacastrian" is a thing
Really doesn't have the same ring as 'Radelaide' does it? Better then Sydney Sider though.
Radelaide is a thing!?
Then again I live in Wollongong and don't know what the locals are even supposed to be called. Gongers?

I only briefly drove through Newcastle on the way to Cunturry, it seemed pretty chill, even the pilot of my flight was wearing boardies and had his sunnies on the back of his neck.
They key, I guess, is to not use Origin.
I hope I have my broadband active tomorrow. I'll definitely download (and maybe stream it) then.
Of course they'd think Newcastle is cool, they only spent 48 hours here. ;P
Had some peeps around today , we listened to prince for a good hour or two.. then popped on some bowie.
god damn you 2016

How restrictive are the requirements regarding discussion? Can you talk about the beta, post pics or videos, etc.?Hell yeah, I got a Mirror's Edge Catalyst beta code in my email.

Pretty sure it's unrestricted. Also, Gong Gaffers are Goffers.
I swear the customer service people from Telstra just lie to you over the phone.
I had a technician in today to fix up my shoddy copper lines and fix a problem in the pit. Was a lovely man. The fact that Telstra can summon people like him is why I have switched. But god damn do the people on the phone suck. I called up about how I was getting drop outs about 30min after the technician left and have been dropping out every few minutes. Get told the "workshop team" or whatever for Bigpond aren't on today and since my billing period doesn't start till the 3rd the she can't do anything. 10min after the call ends, I've had a solid connection since. I swear they did something because it's just too damn coincidental. Of course it drops out when I go to make this post!
Also bought a new router. D-Link AC1200 2890AL. My old one seemed to get screwed up in the switch over (it wouldn't reset - via the browser or physically, it was connected when it should have been a blank slate, power light flashing etc).

Yes.
No different to Internode really. They had me on some seriously degraded copper and they'd still tell me I was "within spec".

Call centres are terrible everywhere.
Since February we've being to transfer ownership of an email address of someone who died with iiNet. Holy crap at the general incompetence so far. Sent all the forms, death certificate, they say they will wave all costs since it hasn't been used. Follow up a week later and they ask for all the forms again and the whole process needs to start again. Keep billing us, tell us they have waived the fees, then sent it to a debt collector, assure us they have waived the fees again etc... I assume they will send someone round to break our thumbs next.
Oh man, did they fuck with BBQ Shapes? If they messed with the GOAT I will lose it...
You might want to sit down for this.... although apparently they are keeping the OG BBQ shapes on shelves with the new ones.
Well I can live with that. I'll have to try the new ones and see if they're any good.

Yeah, I'm getting into a money thing with them where they're basically giving me unlimited mobile data until this is all sorted and I really hope they honour it.

Went to a Dicksmith today and the whole place looked like it had been looted, the two staff in there were just wearing casual clothes. Poor guys.
I haven't found any yet
If you see some anywhere let me know which store.
Me either. Same.
Yeah, it's super sad going in to one these days. Pretty sure they all shut in like six days or something.

Yea. The one I went to had a sign saying 1 day left. All that was left of note in there was a PS4 demo station which was cordoned off. I guess they have to ship those back to Sony.

My darling wife (she's a keeper) returned from grocery shopping with four cartons of OG Pizza Shapes, 24 in each - 96 boxes (or ~18.2 kg) of baked-not-fried goodness.
Bit panicky about what happens once these are gone, but this stock should allow sufficient buffer time (?) for Arnott's to sort out this sorry mess. It's a blight on their corporate record, but I'll allow bygones to be bygones if they do the right thing from here.

Good news- My sister in law has found some!
Bad news- They're in Brisbane.
Good news
for me
The big government freakout for ice/meth has just been a cover up for all the old Shapes to be stolen and replaced.
